E250R "Load main image failed" after running install steps

(1/4) > >>

clutch:
I have  a 250R, it appears that I upgraded the bootloader okay since it still worked after I did it.  After I installed rockbox, I get "Load main image failed".

I've tried to reinstall the V1.0.12 PP5022.mi4 file to the 16MB partition in recovery mode, reboot, and I get that message again.  The next time I fired it up the file isn't in the 16MB partition.

Then I tried going to manufacturing mode and us e200tool recover BL_SD_boardSupportSD.rom and upon reboot I get the same message.

Ideas please,

Thanks

e200R instructions are here:

Were you following the instructions exactly as they're written?

clutch:
I sure thought so.

"I sure thought so" isn't the same as "I followed them exactly". If you don't know what you're doing, then ask!

Since you borked your Sansa, read these pages for the recovery process:

And please keep a mental note that we haven't posted an easier install process, so please wait until it's ready if you're not up to the task already laid out.

From what it looks like, you didn't patch the bootloader (properly).  Either follow the steps exactly or follow the steps to recover your Sansa.
